Every week, pupils have a 'Worldly Wise' assembly where they build and grow their own body of general knowledge. By knowing a little about a lot they will be able to place events and ideas in context in a variety of different situations.
This half term, children are finding out about The London Borough of Havering in East London, which forms part of Outer London
The 'Worldly Wise' Challenge is an opportunity for pupils to complete further research and tasks linked to the half termly topic. There are separate activities for Y3/4 (green sheet) and Y5/6 (blue sheet). They can do as many tasks as they like and do not have to link to Havering we have explored in school but can be any borough, town, village or place that sparks their interest.
This is optional, and on top of their daily 15 minutes of reading, 15 minutes of spelling practice and 15 minutes of times tables practice.
The pupils will receive a special 'Worldly Wise Challenge' certificate at the end of the half term on completion of a project that shows a significant level of effort and challenge undertaken by the individual child.
You pick what you research; you're in control!
We cannot wait to see where your learning takes you!
